My journey into professional dog training began in Australia with a single realization: despite growing up around dogs, I didn't truly understand them. This changed dramatically when I got Taro, a powerful 33kg American Staffy who challenged everything I thought I knew about canine companions.
Our early struggles became my greatest education. When Taro and I faced training challenges, rather than giving up, I became obsessed with finding solutions. I immersed myself in every aspect of dog psychology—volunteering at shelters, joining training classes, studying various methodologies, and eventually turning my passion into a profession as I began walking and training dogs for others.
The transformation was remarkable. What started as neighborhood dog walking evolved into leading packs of dogs off-leash, developing a reputation for taking any dog with me on my pack walks. My hunger for knowledge led me to apprentice under a renowned trainer in another Australian state—selling most of my possessions and relocating with Taro to pursue this opportunity.
The apprenticeship experience deepened my understanding of the profound connection possible between humans and dogs. I discovered that true training isn't about dominance or control, but about building mutual trust and understanding—a philosophy that now defines my approach.
Today, I have created Vietnam's premier dog ranch, offering comprehensive training and boarding services alongside my experienced head trainer, Mark. Our mission extends beyond basic obedience—we're transforming how people relate to their dogs, building bridges of understanding that lead to more fulfilling relationships for both species.
My journey from casual dog owner to dedicated professional has taught me that the most rewarding relationships with our canine companions come through patience, respect, and genuine understanding. I invite you to experience this deeper approach to dog companionship, where your dog becomes not just a pet, but a trusted partner in life's adventures.
